Gsec Security Essentials Toolkit (Broché)

You need more than a hammer to build a house, and you need more than one tool to secure your network. Security Essentials Toolkit covers the critical tools that you need to secure your site, showing you how to use them and when to use them. The best way to learn is through bands-on experience, which is exactly what you get from the authoring team at SANS Press. Based on the SANS Institute's renowned Global Information Assurance Certification (GIAC) program, Security Essentials Toolkit takes a workbook-style approach that teaches you how to install, configure, and run the best security tools of the trade. Security Essentials Toolkit teaches you how to reinforce your security arsenal, including bands-on instruction that features: * Comprehensive coverage of the best security tools of the trade * How to install, configure, and run each tool * How attackers break into systems * How to use attackers' tools to identify vulnerabilities before they do * When to deploy each tool, including real-world scenarios that show exactly what needs to be done and when it needs to be done * Tips and tricks for maximizing the performance of each tool
